When going through a divorce, one of the many tricky elements to navigate is establishing spousal support. Determining the amount to be paid from one spouse to another depends on a wide variety of factors that are set forth in the Ohio Revised Code.

When Ohio couples are getting married, they might not want to think about the fact that close to 50 percent of first marriages end in divorce. However, knowing about this possibility may lead to practical conversations about issues that often cause marriages to end such as money. Couples should have honest conversations about the assets they are bringing into the marriage as well as any debt and past bankruptcies.

Ohio couples who are in the process of divorce have many issues to consider, with one of the most important being what will happen to their home. Sometimes couples can come to an agreement on their own about their house, but other times, a judge must decide.

Ohio residents often hear about high profile divorce cases in which the custodial parent is accused of wanting or receiving too much child support. However, most people are not aware that unless the parents come to an agreement about the amount, they have little say over how much will be awarded if the courts get involved, since courts use a formula set forth in guidelines that vary from state to state.
